Having been a beach-goer for most of my life, the song of theirs that is the most "me" is Surfin' USA. Yeah, I'm a surfer, so shoot me.

"Feel Flows"... I heard it in 'Almost Famous', and I completely latched onto it.  What a masterpiece.

I would also pick "Heroes And Villains".

Girls on the Beach.

Theme of my life from the day I heard it.  Just a wee boy.  I heard those golden harmonies, singing about 'tans of golden brown'...I thought, God...that beautiful melody...the soaring hi-part vocals, the nonlinear chord barrage that I'll never master, layer after layer of pure, gorgeous, harmonic sunshine, filling my head with girls and bikinis, and beautiful music, cascading out of my speakers like a shimmering gleaming light from some far away Californian prism of heaven.  It was real!  --and nothing has ever seemed more real.  So I did what any intelligent being would do... I proclaimed -- God almighty, this -- THIS is music!

Go forth and sing...Girls on the Beach. Till I die.

Luther, you should do another Beach Boys cover song.

I enjoyed Wendy/Cool Cool Water very much.

It'd be interesting to hear you guys take on a song like "Wake The World".

Thanks, but while we're trying to do our first full-length, it's tough just to get time and band together for our songs. 'fraid covers come next. The best way is for me to do most of it and just top it off with some of the other guys. (That's what we did with "Wendy.")

Slight digression - my wife and I picked songs that are not meant to be OUR theme, but that of our six-year old daughter, for whom I've picked out "Wonderful" (gentle & upbeat).  MY wife's choice for our daughter's theme was Lee Ann Womack's "I Hope You Dance" - OK enough but basically Nashville treacle.  I think my choice was better.  (FWIW my daughter's own current chosen theme song is the Who's "Girls Eyes" (arranged by the Breetles). She thinks it's about her eyes).

Maybe the first 20 seconds of California Girls.   For so many years that was the first song of every concert.  I used to get off so strong on that..........the band would walk out, the lights would come up, the crowd would cheer and they would launch into that intro....
 it was a feeling of pure joy.......

"'Til I Die" or "Sail On, Sailor" lyrically (or "A Day In The Life Of A Tree"). Musically, "LGAFAW".
I wa going to say the same, lyrically, but thought it might be too depressing.
